Union of Two Souls #2 Episode 1

Dolls on a cake always seem to be alive. They stand on a majestic platform rich with icing, knowing that unless Yao Ming comes by, they are on the top of the world. They speak to each other only in whispers.

"I wonder when they're coming in..."
"Not long now, what a happy couple..."
"Oh! Now there's icing on my pants, it'll take hours to wash it off..."
"Shhh...here they come."

They stare as the everyone else around them await in anticipation for the only two people they long to see.

When they do, the focus no longer goes to little dolls. Don't they look sweet together? Before I go on, episode one means celebration for the girl's family. There will be more to come, after all, this my family has marked on the calender as the highlight of the year!

First dishes are important, they say, for they give first impressions. The food was fantastic, especially the desserts, but posting up mountains of food grants me no time.
All of us just cannot wait for next week, when all would congregate once again for the highlight of the year, where we would laugh through a feast, where there will be another red carpet to greet two souls, and when we would have to get used to calling her 'aunt' in Hokkien.

Dolls on a cake---sigh--- they can hear every laughter of joy, and see all the happiness. Felicitous, despite the fact that their shoes are sunken in the icing. Yet they speak in whispers so all you can trust is what I tell you.
